We did not wait on that, and DeVries was the guy we settled on. Man Iowa thought they lost out. How glad are they that we stole DeVries now skhoosier2 1 Quote

Now Ben McCollum and Todd Golden...those guys HATED each other tonight. I did like McCollum calling Florida sensitive during the halftime interview. lol. Stuhoo 1 Quote

Home Jersey Posted March 23 Posted March 23 So satisfying that Ben McCollum sends Todd Golden packing after his whiny outburst lol FortWayneHoosier, OliviaPope40, Jeff Flabjohns and 1 other 4 Quote
Alford Bailey Posted March 23 Posted March 23 That was really some terrible defense by Florida on the game winning shot. Quote

National media reported that around the time his name was brought up as a serious candidate for IU. Most on here brushed that off and didn’t believe he would want the Iowa job over the IU job. All you had to do was watch his 2 episodes on the Journey where they showed old pictures of him as a kid in a Iowa shirt and how he was talking about the program where he went and watched games as a kid to know that those reports were right. Same with Nedved at Minny where his parents had season tickets up until he took over. Thoses programs took advantage of a built in connection. For whatever reason IU has struggled doing that with their program skhoosier2, Stuhoo, cybergates and 1 other 3 1 Quote

Don't let @AH1971 hear you talking like that... he still believes that Woodson deserved year 4, despite him not being able to clear the hump. Quote

Now Woodson went to Sacramento and they start winning just when they are supposed to be tanking. Dude can’t do anything right RoadRage, skhoosier2 and AZ Hoosier 3 Quote

My mom was visiting while I was watching this game. She doesn't really follow basketball but after a few minutes of watching she said that she doesn't like the UCLA coach. A few minutes of watching is all it took. RoadRage 1 Quote
